I love how Pattinson’s bruce feels like a boy who never really got the chance to grow up after seeing his parents die. It just feels very raw and accurate to how many of us would be after experiencing something like that.

I love that Matt Reeves got complete control over his own movie. Didn't feel like there were a bunch of hands in the pot. That's when DC is at its best

Personally a big highlight for me was just how good the movie sounded in the theater. Not just the score but the bark of the gunshots, the thud of his boots in the distance and the roar of the batmobile all sent chills down my spine and made the movie that much more fun to watch

At the beginning of the movie, the man he saved from thugs was cowering from him and begging him to not hurt him.<br>At the end of the movie, the woman he saved was clinging to him, because she saw him as a beacon of hope.<br>That transition during the final act where he realizes that simply beating up criminals isn't enough to bring about the change he needs is quite nice. I feel like that’s when he went from being a vigilante to being a hero.

The main difference between this Batman and Nolan's Batman is that Nolan's had already gone through 7 years of travelling, combat training, and soul searching BEFORE he put on the suit. So by the time, he came back to Gotham and became Batman, he knew who he was, what his goals were, and how to execute them.<br>I have a feeling this Batman put on the suit FIRST, hit the streets, and then preceded to learn and find himself while on the job. Which would explain why he's a bit more sloppy and emotionally unstable. He's still a raw and unhinged Batman-in-training and needs more time to develop that God-like competence. 2 years is still very, very little in the grand scheme of things.

I like how you touched upon how Pattinson plays Bruce outside of the suit. To me, not only did he seem uninterested in being Bruce, he also felt very self conscious, and almost afraid, like all of his confidence is just drained when he’s not behind the mask. I found that to be a very interesting and unique take on the character.

This is really the first Batman movie where it feels like Batman himself is “the main attraction”. Absolutely everything is in service of growing Bruce as a character, and it’s an enormously compelling journey.

For a three hour movie, The Batman went by really fast. It definitely had the feel of watching a graphic novel in live action, right down to cliffhangers and monologues.

Personally, I really love the addition of the eyeliners. Other than addressing Batman's disapearing eyeliners in mainstream movies before this, I think it really adds to the gothic aesthetic in this world Bruce lives in.

This movie definitely has one of the best opening sequence imo. The facts that all the villains just constantly looking into the darkness expecting him to show up is crazy and bone chilling to me.

I feel like we witnessed the birth of Bruce wayne as an identity in this movie though. Like to me there seemed to be a real lightbulb moment for him when he realised how easy it was for him to get around the club as Bruce
